Genuine tempo from Holmes leading them up. BROOKLYN BOSS (3) worked home evenly to just miss the frame in fourth last start at Caulfield. Gets a key jockey switch with Lane piloting and drops back slightly in grade. Draws to get all the favours and should prove tough to hold out. IMPOSING SUSPECT (9) was doing his best work late here last week in a slowly run affair. Will appreciate having a bit more speed in the race and is expected to be charging hard at the business end. HOLMES (11) is another on the quick back up and also drops in trip. Doesn't lose anything in the saddle with the change in hoop but will need to raise the bar. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Brooklyn Boss.
